Coach Talk

Eric's Excellent Team
Putting together a starting crew that won by a whopping 23.48 points this past week... we did what we needed to do and took care of business. Let's maintain this momentum as we roll into what might be a favorable Week 15 matchup.
Week 4 Recovery
The problem in Week 14 is pretty easy to spot, Week 4 Recovery. Choosing to start and the Indianapolis Colts defense in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied 111.78 points... we'll all move on from this and assume that something like this won't happen again.
